Friedrich Froebel 
Education of Man [PDF ebook] 

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The insights of F roebel into the unfolding of rational selfhood have enabled him’ to organize the method of infant education to which he, in 1840, gave the name of Kindergarten. In the work here presented to the public, which was published fourteen years before that date, we have a discussion of the essential ideas which moved him in his subsequent experiments to discover the methods and more especially the appliances to be employed in early education.
